This document describes systems and techniques enabling the secure registration of an agent such that the agent has secure and trusted access to its specific tenant and specific resources in a multi-region, multi-tenant, multi-cell SaaS platform. The systems and techniques use a secure and robust agent registration process to enable the creation of a unique security profile for each specific agent to enable access only to its specific tenant and specific resources that the agent uses to communicate with the SaaS platform to carry out jobs. The systems and techniques result in a registration process that is scalable for thousands or millions of agents in an environment having segregated SaaS platform cells.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The computer-implemented method as in claim 1, wherein the first endpoint is an application programming interface (API) gateway.
3. The computer-implemented method as in claim 1, wherein the temporary credential is invalid after a single access by the agent to the specific resource on the specific tenant.
4. The computer-implemented method as in claim 1, wherein the security profile maps the unique agent identity to multiple specific resources across multiple specific tenants.
9. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the first endpoint is an application programming interface (API) gateway.
10. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the temporary credential is invalid after a single access by the agent to the specific resource on the specific tenant.
11. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the security profile maps the unique agent identity to multiple specific resources across multiple specific tenants.
15. The computer program product of claim 8, further comprising executable code that, when executed, causes the data processing apparatus to update the security profile to map the unique agent identity mapped to a new specific resource on a new specific tenant on the SaaS platform.
